Montreal - The Montreal Alouettes announced on Tuesday that the team has agreed to a one-year deal with Quebec-born linebacker Alexandre Gagné.

Gagné (6'1", 230 lbs.) suited up for every game in 2025. He was a constant threat on special teams, finishing second in the CFL (behind teammate Tyrell Richards) with 25 special teams tackles.

On June 6, the Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu resident recorded seven special teams tackles in a single game, tying a CFL record.

"Alexandre is someone we can rely on to lead by example", said Danny Maciocia

In eight games with the Owls in 2024, he recorded 19 defensive tackles, four assisted, three knockdowns, and he forced two fumbles.
